The Philadelphia-based public television station WHYY produced a “You Oughta Know” segment about Special Smiles that aired February 17 and is archived on the station’s website. You can view the segment on our YouTube channel.

“The WHYY team did a great job capturing in just four minutes what Special Smiles is and does,” said Mark Axelman, Special Smiles Executive Vice President.

The segment included interviews with founder Mark Goldstein, DDS, staff dentist Jordan Strott, DMD, and the family of a young adult patient (pictured above in a still from the video). Parent Debbie Parrott was recorded saying, “From the time we walked in the door, to the people that work there, the comfort level was just the greatest thing for her. Everybody was pleasant, it was a sort of family atmosphere. So it was a great experience — better than anywhere we had been.”
